rerun

The whole world whispers when you meet my gaze,

My eyes flutter closed as your lips meet mine,

And though it's forbidden, my heart still betrays. 

 

I know I should leave, but I always stay,

Fingers in your hair, our fates intertwined,

The whole world whispers when you meet my gaze.

 

And so this is goodbye until another August day,

The clock ticks; we've lost track of time,

And though it's forbidden, my heart still betrays. 

 

Breaths are now stolen, we silence our heys,

Your presence consumes everything else in my mind,

The whole world whispers when you meet my gaze. 

 

The moves are rehearsed, we fall back into this play,

Reprising our roles and you're a fault line,

And though it's forbidden, my heart still betrays. 

 

I ignore the noes; it means nothing anyway

But a million thoughts swarm and I can't deny

The whole world whispers when you meet my gaze,

And though it's forbidden, my heart still betrays.

    We run back to your house,

    The lights are still on,

    And they cover your freckled face,

    Like it's the sun.

     

    The grass brushes our feet,

    And the wind catches in your hair,

    We sit out on the sand,

    The fog covers the sky,

    And blankets the world,

    Like a shield. 

     

    The waves nip at our feet,

    The water's cold

    But I'm warm because you hold my hand,

  • observation i

    We stand on the dock,

    The sun has set,

    But I can see your happiness 

    Even in the dead of night.

     

    The streetlight's on,

    The metal is all rusted

    And covered in salt,
